Young Mouse Brain Slicer Matrix BSMYS005-2

The Stainles Steel Zivic Young Mouse Brain Slicer Matrix with 500 micron SAGITTAL section slice intervals aids research scientists in the dissection of discrete regions of the mouse brain. With its anatomically proportioned dimensions and slice channels, this mouse brain matrix allows an investigator or research scientist to consistently slice sagittal sections of a mouse brain, enabling precise blocking prior to microtome sectioning or the removal of small, reproducible brain regions (i.e. discrete terminal fields or nuclei) for biochemical analysis, such as the determination of neurotransmitter and metabolite concentrations. Individual brain areas may be either dissected or micropunched from the slices formed.

KEY FEATURES:

- Slice intervals spaced 500 microns (0.5mm) apart

- Use this matrix to section the mouse brain into SAGITTAL slices with thicknesses in increments of 0.5mm

- Designed to accommodate for unique anatomical features of the mouse brain, including adjacent olfactory/spinal tissue

- Include a central sagittal slice channel, allowing the brain to be split into left and right hemispheres

- Use with fresh or preserved brain tissue

- Autoclavable and designed for long-term use

- Matrices of any given type are identical to insure reproducible sections
